Summer Fast Track Is Complete

It started on July 20th. 23 days and 138 hours later, our Summer Fast Track is complete. Five bold students finished the entire core curriculum, ten students completed one or two core tracks, and an additional 16 students joined us for one or more individual classes. I watched these students grow and flourish over these three weeks, and here’s what I came away with:

No Matter How Much You Already Know, Know More:Our five core students began the program with a large variety of acting training among them, yet they embraced new concepts unique to voice over; they were open to re-learning familiar concepts from their acting training in a new way; and they dedicated themselves to adapting their newfound skills from one class to the next.

Laughter Is The Thelma To Learning’s Louise:Laughter was our constant companion in the midst of this intensive learning environment. We laughed at others' spontaneous discoveries; we laughed at our successes and honest failures; we laughed in surprise as countless students rose to a place of talent and technique that they thought they couldn’t achieve; and we laughed long and hard at Krug, the Destroyer.

Marathons Require You To Run:These students are proof that voice acting is much more than plugging in a microphone and talking in a funny voice. They showed devotion, perseverance, a positive attitude, and caring for their voice and well-being in order to make it to the finish line, so that they can crouch ready and eager at the next starting line.

I am inspired, encouraged, and humbled by the talent and potential of our students. I look forward to watching them take on the voice over world with the same enthusiasm and courage I witnessed these past few weeks.

Inspired by the three-week intensive some of our students recently completed, Danny spoke with Voice One Vocal Health instructor Julia Norton who has over 25 years of experience teaching people how to have a free and healthy voice.

Danny spoke with Voice One Founder Elaine Clark, who has over 30 years experience as a casting director in video games, anime, toys, corporate narration, documentaries, and commercials, about what it means to be a casting director.

We sent out a Super Bowl scavenger hunt to aide you in watching the year's biggest commercials with a critical eye. Many of you sent us your answers, and we wanted to share some of our biggest take-aways.

Voice One offers a beginning improv class that takes you through the the basic rules of improv (believe it or not, there are rules!) through games and scenes. Laura Derry creates a fun and safe space for you to succeed and fail and you'll laugh and learn a lot!

We are premiering a new class called Storytelling in VO. The class takes place over two Thursdays: January 31st and February 7th from 6:30pm-9:30pm taught by Sally. The class will cover the short story format, with scripts from commercials, corporate narration, literature, and children’s books.
